Hungers Games And Poverty.

 




         The Hunger Games  connects to Poverty in so many ways. Poverty is when there are people who are poor and who doesn't have any money. In the Hunger Games Katniss, and her faily where poor or lived in poverty. Kids who live in poverty don''t get alot of benifits or things to eat. Some forege for themselves, like Katniss in the hunger games she her mother didn't have a job so she was forced on the roll of being a hunter.("Equal Opertunitie's For Kids." )
      In todays society People want poverty to end because it's just not fair for kids and adults. In the Hunger games they feel the same way but insted of the government helping the tributes or the poor, the poor or lower class people had thier name drawn to fight in the hunger games, and who ever one got to have a life time supply of food for thier family.("How to End Hunger in the U.S. - Bread for the World: Have Faith. End Hunger.")
      Microfinance is also menchond in the Hunger Games but the word itself is not. Microfinance is when a person or a family has a low income or no income at all. In this case Katiss's family had very low income and she had to hunt almost every day to help feed her family. She wasn't a grown up and she had t help feed her sister and mother. Today kids who are 6 years old are feeding thier little brothers or sisters or even thier own family's(Stern).

Hunger games chapter 20

Katniss tryina to make peeta fall asleep, she would find ou the next day that he wont make a peep. He might be knocked out but there is still anger inside, katniss has to make it to the cornoucopia in time. I think that Katniss might eventually strangle peeta. She said she was going to kill thresh but she dont needa. This book kinda sounds like it brings alot of tears, Katniss dying is the one thing ive now feared.

Hunger games chapter 18

I like how katniss wants to stand up to the capitol, showing them that she is not some toy, and that she is a person just like every one else in the capitol. I still dont under stand how they can have that type of government in the book it sounds like the capitol is trying to create a genniside.

thougthfull writing hunger games

i wonder how katniss will feal when she kills another tribute. maby she might feel greif knowing she had to take a persons life just to save her own, and to save and feend her family.

quick wright character traits.

Character traits are things that god made you with. what I mean is that he made every one different but every one is still perfect in his eyes. My character traits are athletic, goofy, random at times, but i am very loyal. I might seem very talkative but i do like to have things qiuet and i aint afraid to admit none of this stuff.
